Best Chex Mix You'll Ever Eat!


I love Chex Mix, but following the standard recipe left me feeling like I could just do better.  So, I played around with ingredients, changed things and now whenever I make Chex Mix and bring it to work, people come from across the building to get some of my Chex Mix.  They love it and I'm sure you will too.

Best Chex Mix Ever

1 box Corn Chex cereal
1 box Rice Chex cereal
1 box Wheat Chex cereal
1 small can of Durkee Potato Stix
2 cans Mixed Nuts
1 bag of Original Chex Mix from the grocery
3 sticks REAL Butter
1/2 cup Worcestershire
Seasoned Salt to taste (about 5 to 6 Tbsps)

In a saucepan, add the butter and Worcestershire.  Cook over low heat until the butter melts.  Do not boil. 

Mix all remaining ingredients in a very ,very large pan or bowl.  Pour the Butter/Worcestershire mixture over the cereal mixture a little at a time, tossing between additions so that everything gets coated.  Toss with a large spoon or wooden spoon, gently so as not to crush the cereal.

Spread the mixture evenly onto a cookie sheet.  Make sure not to pile it up.  It needs to be in a thin, single layer.  You will need to do this repeatedly until the entire mixture has been baked.

Bake in a preheated 325 degrees oven for approximately 8 to 10 minutes or until the cereal gets crispy to the touch.  Pour into a bowl for cooling and proceed with the second batch.

Allow to cool completely and put into large baggies or containers with lids for storage. 

Makes approximately 3 large baggies (gallon size) full of Mix.
